I'm fairly certain I stopped playing roughly 6 months into ToS' life (so about 4.5 years ago?). It felt like my only option at the time was slowly grinding to level up a Chinese Myth Beast team, which got repetitive very quickly. I picked the game back up around a month ago and find SO MUCH HAS HAPPENED! There's so much to do! The timing was also super convenient. I had some diamonds lying around so I spent everything on the Prologue of the Universe draws, and then used my All Max draw on Azathoth. I've been relying on dual Azathoth and Daoloth decks, but I'm not sure what else I can construct at the moment that's of comparable strength. Overheal and Heart shields are typically what stops me in my tracks, as well as light/dark resistance.

I'm only familiar with the two dragon Leader/Ally combos that I'm using. Am I sitting on anything else, or should I work toward anything in particular?

I'm sitting on 40 diamonds atm in prep for the Chinese New Year events, as well as 475 ancient tokens.

From what I can tell you have a good spread of cards. You have some Meta WFE leaders, but lack some member cards that rack up damage, or make game play unique/easier. Your DL teams however, show lots of promise.

For a good light team I recommend Doaloth - Pluma - Ra - Luminosaurus - Light Elf/Dragon/Beast - Daoloth, this is a very good meta team that has good HP and RCV while having stable damage output and high burst potential. Luminosaurus is there to give you utility because it will give you 3 light runes in a rune drought, or get rid of some pesky enemy skills. This team is not perfect though, there are better members that you can get or aim for in a draw such as, Colin (Newer SM, has board explosion and time tunnel), Solar/Lunar Fenrir for OP fusion card, and Merlin for some overheal enemies. With that said, your cards can get some pretty good use out of Daoloth. Some light leader you NEED to start developing are Apollo, and Thor, develop your light members based on need.

For a good dark team I recommend good ol' norse, they arent ground breaking or in the meta, but they can clear a lot of stages from the past 3-4 years quite reliably. Also, Odin is coming back soon so max him out and VR him. On to team composition, Loki - Edward - Lancelot - Phantomasaurus - VR Odin - Loki, this will give you a stable team with high burst damage and nice amount of converters. Once you get better diversity in terms of teams you can go to the age of heroic spirits to obtain Hel, which is a very good member for Loki teams and Artemis teams. This team is not Meta or ground breaking in anyway, but very stable.

A good earth team would be very simple and strong, Izanagi. It would look like this Iza - Yvette - Diarmuid - Amor & Celos - Sun Shangxiang - Iza, not too special, but very stable and consistent. Key cards that you would need to "complete" the team is Circe, Nidhogg, and Matryoshka, this gives you insane survivability in super harsh stages while being able to deliver great damage with a booster thats better than Yvette.

From looking at your water box, I can see some very good members and teams, but you are missing the leaders required. Some members you must develop are Cassandra, Wen Zhong, Zhang Liao, Odous, Qinlong, and Urd. These cards can be used in all water teams and some multi color teams, an example is Urd, great for stages that need delaying like Giemsa, and can help you clear achievements on such stages. Cassandra is just OP on some really strong teams like Atlantis and Poseidon teams. And Odous is just a strong and farmable booster. Leaders to draw for are Poseidon, Water Norse , and Atlantis.

Fire box seems the same as water, nothing to great in the leader department, save for Hephaestus and Groth, but has some very good memeber cards. One team that you can make now is a Ghroth - Thetis - Agatha - Cthugga - Diablo - Ghroth team, it packs a punch and gets good recovery. But again, not too much good teams in the box. Members you need to get are Medea and Fire Bride. Leaders for fire team arent too great, so i wont touch on them since developing 4 element will keep you occupied.

Welcome back and have fun. Dont forget too draw as often as possible when a special seal is released since you want whatever members you can get while trying for them leader cards.

Thanks!

The few PRs I've managed so far each required at least one diamond if memory serves. Even burned five on Honor before cutting my losses.

PRs shouldn't require diamonds to pass. I can only think of a few which are really annoying to keep retrying and a diamond could be worth it in that case. But I wouldn't spend more than 1 diamond and only if I was confident I could pass after reviving.
Using diamonds on stamina to retry tends to be more cost effective than spending diamonds to revive.

Remember, while PR can be done at any level, the stage is typically much easier to pass with a maxed or near-maxed card.
Stages will often require the use of their active skill, so try to make sure you have a high slvl if not max, beforehand.
Some cards will be easier to PR with their amelioration done first, for example the Spiritual Beast series has a hp recovery amelioration that makes the PR stage much easier. So also check the amelioration stages and skills to see if it will be easier to PR before amelioration or ameliorate before PR.
Have a good understanding of their leader skill, especially if they are a rarely used leader. For example, with Honor, you need to dissolve a group of 6 runes in order to have a damage multiplier, so you'll need to do so in his PR stage.
Check the wiki for the stage details in advance, so you know when to stall and when to use actives.

Agreed with Agnesi. If you really are having trouble with some of the PR stages, check the wiki for stage info beforehand. Some pages even have video or written guidelines in the comments so be sure to double-check if any of that stuff is there. Also, just gonna share our newly promoted super mod Aahlsy's youtube channel as it contains not only SM stages but also minor stuff like Amelioration, PR, VR etc. as well. Sometimes it's useful to see how others clear a stage before attempting it on your own for strategy ideas to minimize losses.

There are some nice members in there, but the only stand out leaders you pulled are Rose (which is unusable without other members of her series) and Amaterasu (where the meta play style typically involves CD reduction DIY crafts).

If you have to pick between VR Odin and VR Zeus, Odin is the better of the two to have trained, so I'd prioritize that one first.

I used the search function and couldn't find the answer to this, but what should I do with my duplicate cards?

I have an extra haza, wen zhong, osiris, and some others, but mostly I now have around 8+ Odin just taking up space after farming for the evo wizard.

If your Odin isn't slvled, you want to feed those dupes to it to bring it up to max (5 at a time). You kinda wanna keep dupes in case of VR or DW, but cards like Haza which haven't even gotten PR or Wen Zhong who is more likely to get AR are not high on the priority list for that, and you can probably decompose for souls. On the other hand, some cards are such staples that having multiple copies in one team isn't so bad (4-7 converters like Swegde and Sunnie for example are great to have extra slvled copies of).
